Support for ATM NIC capturing

[Munish Dayal <munish.dayal () aricent com>]

Hi,

I am a newbie to libpcap.
I have a Linux machine (RHEL 4) with an ATM NIC (Marconi ForeRunner HE155 card - OC3).
I wish to capture ATM cells (AAL5/AAL2) from this card. The application I will be using is Wireshark, to monitor 
AAL5/AAL2 traffic to/from my machine's ATM interface.

Does libpcap support capturing from this ATM card ?
If not, how do I go about adding such a functionality in libpcap.
What are the steps to add support for a new device in libpcap ?

Any pointers to start with would be extremely helpful.

Thanks,
Munish
